Learn English – Antonyms of “shortlisted”

Are there any opposites of shortlisted?

Currently, I am developing an application where candidates are shortlisted and I, the user, want to be un-shortlisted.

I googled but no word was found. If there is no word related to it, then what will be the best word to select and reject a candidate other than select and reject?

Best Answer

You would simply say, "I would like to be taken off your shortlist". If you are looking for a single word for your application, one of unlist, delist, or simply, remove might do. You could also use remove from shortlist for additional clarity.
